Winner of the Nobel Prize for literature in 1907, Rudyard Kipling (1865-1936) drew upon his experiences in Anglo-Indian Society for much of his writing. This volume presents five of Kipling's best early stories, including `The Phantom 'Rickshaw`' a psychological thriller; `Wee Willie Winkie,` a delightful display of love for children; `Without Benefit of Clergy,` the poignant story of an Englishman's affair with an Islamic woman; `The Strange Ride of Morrowbic Jukes`; and the celebrated title story.
